uh-oh
Ok so been working on the Stories Desired - Home of Hundreds of Free Erotic Stories website. The problem is that all of a sudden my index pages have been dropping like rocks. So I start looking into the causes.
Uh-oh, there are links that have fallen off that have not been replaced. My numbers have dropped by about 5 percent, an my indexing by 50%. So It's time to get back to work and get my links back up and running.
The funny thing is that the google ranking has continued to go up in most categories, so I'm not to upset about that.
I'm getting lots of traffic and my ads are getting about a .5% hit ratio, so I'm making a couple of cents on the side.
So keep vigilant as to how your website is going. Don't let one side of the thing drop, as it will affect your other sides.
Good luck

Hard Work
Ok, I've been working hard on the site Stories Desires (http://www.storiesdesired.com/). I've gotten over 300 pages up and running, and google has been happy indexing them daily. As we've said before, google loves watching a site grow.
It does not like a site with broken links though. I've told you before if you put broken links up google will penalize you, and I'm more convinced than ever that is so. So I use http://www.auditmypc.com/xml-sitemap.asp to create a sitemap of my site every time I update pages and then resubmit my sitemap to google. That really seems to help.
So Stories Desired is not all I want it to be, but it is a great start, and making google happy with all the words on the pages. Also, I've added the stories name on each page title and meta tags so that I don't get duplicate tag warnings.
Ok, so I will keep you informed where I'm at. Right now I'm going through and creating links at other sites back to my site.

It's offical
I got my notice today that www.servicewrap.net was refunding my money. After 2 attempts on different website they give up.
Now mind you I recieved this notice via the cancelation of my credit card agreement and notice of refund. Not through normal customer service channels.
While I have to give them credit for honoring their money back promise, their customer service sucks. They are slow to respond to emails if there is any kind of question on them. I went one week, and 4 emails before I ever got a response back to why they were 3 weeks behind in delivering the first go around (and the email said it would be another week before they got it done).
I specifically asked before giving them a second try (after all trying to get them to do www.delightmenow.com was a the worst experience I ever had on the web) , and they promised a 5 day turn around, and most happening in 48 hours. Well I'm now at 2 weeks on www.bouncingtatas.com and just not got the notice.
Now I want to point out a couple of things here.
First and fore most, this shows that SEO is serious business. Here are people (or at least one person) that does this for a living, and not having sucess in getting major keywords listing for the adult website industry, even though they advertise for it.
If you are going to get into this industry you had best find someone who is going to bust their butts for you, and help you get links or stay the hell out. You best be willing to ride the tide for a year or so before you make your first $40 sell, and in that time willing to work every day on getting links for your website. This is the main way to get traffic to your site.
Second, if these, who are willing to give money back if they don't suceed can not get it done, can you imagine what those that won't back up their services can get? I'm willing to bet nothing!
So it's official, and I'm back to working on these two sites along with the half a dozen others we have built to get them up and visible.
We will keep you informed as we progress.
